Freeway-improvement projects will require closures or lane restrictions in the Phoenix area this weekend (Oct. 13-16), according to the Arizona Department of Transportation. Drivers should allow extra travel time, consider alternate routes and use caution in work zones while the following restrictions are in place:

Northbound Interstate 17 ramp to eastbound Loop 101 in north Phoenix narrowed to one lane from 9 p.m. Saturday to 2 p.m. Sunday (Oct. 15) for installation of wrong-way vehicle detection system. The east- and westbound Loop 101 ramps to southbound I-17 also will be narrowed to one lane. Southbound I-17 off-ramp at Yorkshire Drive closed. DETOUR: Please use caution and be prepared to slow down and merge safely. Watch for highway workers and equipment in work zones.
